Large Medieval carved frieze - France, 14th-15th century

About the Item

Gothic Limestone frieze decorated with curly foliage North of France, 14th-15th century 59,8 x 15,6x 22 cm This French Gothic limestone frieze, adorned with curling foliage, stands as a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of its era. Each delicate tendril, meticulously carved into the stone, seems to dance and sway with an ethereal grace, creating a sense of organic beauty that transcends its materiality. What sets this frieze apart is its remarkable depth and dimensionality. The relief is not merely superficial; rather, it possesses a tangible sense of volume and presence. As light gently caresses its surface, the shadows deepen, accentuating the contours and giving life to the sculpted foliage. The type of stone, typical of northern France, appears rather gray under cold light but presents itself with a creamy tone under warmer light.
